About Me

Julie graduated from Creighton University with a major in dance and Theology and taught for several years at an inner-city school in Milwaukee. With a desire to expand her knowledge of the arts and spirituality, she attended St. John’s University in Collegeville and completed a Masters in Theology and Liturgical Studies. Over the years, her quest to merge diverse religious beliefs and practices through the commonalities of love and peaceful living, led her to travel, live, and study with shaman practitioners, herbal healers, Native American medicine women, Buddhist priests and other earth-based spiritual teachers. Through these experiences and experiences with global metaphysical teachings, she learned to honor the eternal source of love in all people.

Attic Sealing Project One

The attached garage in my house has an attic space that meets an upper floor bedroom. The bedroom closet contains a small door to access the garage attic. From inside the attic facing the bedroom wall, the photo shows incomplete insulation work.

The auditors also discovered that there is a hollow open space between the kitchen ceiling and upper bedroom floor where the cold air can freely flow from the garage attic. The photo makes it look as though the area between floors is sealed using the blown yellow insulation but there is actually a gap several inches deep where there is no insulation or covering. For this area the auditor has recommended blowing in insulation then sealing off with expanding foam and insulation board.
